It looks as though his second wife Evelyn had been married before too. Their marriage is listed under Evelyn Lockwood and Ramsbottom.

So her maiden name wasn't Lowery obviously - got me very confused that.

Linda,

You say that you have a baby book which indicates that John had parents Mary Elizabeth and Frank, Possibly Done. Are any dates shown in the book?

Just trying to think outside the box a bit:

Mary E Mylan married in March Qtr 1914 to John C Hiley and produced a son John born 24/7/1914.

Could John C Hiley then have moved on or perhaps have been killed during WW1.

Could Mary Elizabeth have taken up with Frank Done who raised John Jnr as his son, hence The father Frank mentioned in the baby book.

Could Mary E and Frank Done eventually have got married. If John H Hiley was still alive did he and Mary eventually divorce clearing the way for Mary to marry Frank in 1930.

Depending upon John Jnr's age when Frank Done came upon the scene John Jnr may well have thought Frank to be his father only later to find out or be told he was not.

All possibilities I think.

Good thinking there Jonesey.

This would fit for Mary E too -

I'm a bit confused now Jonesey. Are you saying that John H Hiley was originally John C ?
I have been checking possible deaths and births for John H Hiley.

Hi every one sorry i have'nt been able to reply but my internet has been down for some reason just managed to get back on i would like to thank everyone for all your hard work i really do appreciate it linda x

Christine,

I slipped up earlier by putting John H Hilley which I have now corrected.

On the record of the 1914 marriage he is shown as John C Hiley

Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks Jonesey - I'm struggling to keep up lol:))
